Bowler Brianna Boze Takes 2nd in UC Tournament

Boze wins over Berkeley Heights, but can't get past Linden in girls championship.

Summit High School sophomore Brianna Boze took second place in the Individual Championships of the Union County Tournament for bowling yesterday at Jersey Lanes. She defeated Jen Wageman of Governor Livingston in a 215 to 133 matchup, but Boze fell to Linden's Briana Reid 213 to 169.

This was Boze's second time taking home the second place plaque. "I did okay," she said. "I could've done better." Boze has been bowling since she was seven under the direction of her uncle Lance Gammon, a former top bowler for Montclair High School in the 1970s. "I've been coaching her forever," he said. 

Summit's bowling coach John Kratch said next for Boze is the state bowling tournament, next month.
